How to Support Grieving Loved Ones

Are you struggling with grief and seeking support? In this episode of Financially Ever After Widowhood, Hope Reger, a passionate advocate for those experiencing loss, shares her journey and insights on coping with grief with Stacy. She highlights the importance of recognizing the unique challenges that come with grieving and emphasizes the value of genuine connection and support. As the founder of Grief 2 Hope, she provides resources and a safe space for individuals to navigate their grief journey. 


Hear them discuss:

  • Understanding Grief: Grieving is a deeply personal experience, and acknowledging it can be the first step toward healing.
  • Authentic Support: When helping someone who is grieving, honesty matters—simply saying, "I don't know what to say, but I'm here for you," can be incredibly powerful.
  • Casserole Therapy vs. Specific Help: While well-meaning friends may offer food, true support comes from specific offers to help, like picking up kids or walking the dog, rather than leaving the burden on the grieving person to ask for help.
  • The Importance of Ongoing Support: Grief doesn't end after the funeral. Continuing to reach out during significant milestones—like anniversaries or the first day of school—can mean the world to someone navigating loss.
  • Grief to Hope Program: Open to anyone grieving, this seven-week virtual program provides a supportive community. It covers various topics related to grief and allows participants to share their experiences in a safe space.
  • Inclusivity of Loss: The program welcomes those grieving any loss, whether it be a partner, child, or friend, emphasizing that all grief is valid.
  • Free Resources: The Grief to Hope program is entirely free, emphasizing the mission to support anyone in need without financial barriers.
